Live At The Library Theatre '83
2025 stock "Live at The Library Theatre '83" captures the legendary Nico, former member of The Velvet Underground, in a raw and intimate live performance at Manchester’s Library Theatre in 1983.

Live At The Hacienda '83
2025 stock Limited to 2000 copies. Having appeared in La Dolca Vita before joining The Velvet Underground in New York in the mid-‘60s, Nico seemed to be at the epicentre of all that was cool in the ‘60s. And she continued that trend by relocating to Manchester in the ‘80s for a career renaissance before her death in 1988. This record immortalises her performance at The Hacienda, Manchester, in 1983. This deluxe package includes an OBI strip, single album jacket, printed inner sleeve, record labe…
Non Mountain
*2025 stock. 50 sopies limited edition* The source material was created by Angus Carlyle for two films with Chiara Caterina, ‘Il Vertice’ (2013) and ‘Into The Outside’ (2015), part of his larger project ‘In The Shadows of Silent Mountains’. The soundtracks have been reworked and responded to for this collaborative project ‘Non Mountain’.
Hold Onto I.D.
Recorded from late 1996 through early 1997, Hold Onto I.D., The Shadow Ring’s fourth album, marks the apogee of the trio’s experimental rock epoch—their last record clinging to their factitious bandness before they let all song and structure go awash in sonic malaise for their final run of releases on Swill Radio. The surrealist dreams of City Lights and Put the Music in Its Coffin give way to pseudo-expressionistic lyrics mired in the banality and bleakness of the everyday, set against the back…
Wax-Work Echoes
Wax-Work Echoes, The Shadow Ring’s 1996 album, marks a shift to original material and features Tim Goss in the main lineup. Fusing atmospheric soundscapes and wry lyricism, it captures the band’s restless energy. Out of print for decades, it now returns on vinyl.
The Window
200 copies.  Les Disques Omnison is thrilled to announce the vinyl release of The Window by HWYUIOD, a mysterious project that has been quietly building a devoted following through digital channels and word-of-mouth in underground experimental circles. The Window represents a singular vision of ambient drift and processed sound that exists somewhere between the meditative expanses of Éliane Radigue , the expansive minimalism of early Kranky releases (Labradford, Stars of the Lid), and the textur…
D'Un Seul Trait De Pinceau
* Edition of 150 * "Miha invites you to explore her world once again, this time in the form of a disheveled monad. It wouldn't be so bad to read the hollows, listen to the foam, learn to savor the bubbles. Or to choose the attentive abandon of listening. A raw, demanding and generous gem. I recognize in it the abundant family of gardens with animal ears. I think of the volcanoes of the Kraft and their human flows down to the sea. Cosmic voluptuousness, magma for the ears. Danger and salvation? F…
Zerkelus
*150 copies limited edition* Richard Youngs is neither a stranger to Fourth Dimension Records or creating music from a disparate array of sources that then fall somewhere near that space where immersive drones converge with something altogether more frayed, ravaged or disquiet. 'Zerkelus', named after an imaginary Babylonian king, comprises two lengthy side-long parts, with the first being akin to something of an extended orchestral tune-up utilising voice, oboe and indiscernible sources to crea…
Brace for Impact
First pressing of 500 units. Hampus Lindwall unveils Brace for Impact, a groundbreaking album that positions the pipe organ as the ultimate instrument for our hyperconnected era. This isn't your grandmother's church music – it's a visceral forty-five minute journey that transforms one of humanity's oldest instruments into a vehicle for exploring contemporary anxieties, digital culture, and the collision between ancient tradition and algorithmic thinking. The Swedish composer and organist, who ha…
The Serpentine Similar
The Serpentine Similar, the seminal debut studio album from American experimental rock innovators Gastr del Sol, is now available on Drag City. Originally released in 1993 by TeenBeat Records and reissued by Drag City in 1997, this album marks a pivotal moment in experimental and post-rock music. Formed from the ashes of the post-hardcore band Bastro, Gastr del Sol features guitarist David Grubbs, bassist Bundy K. Brown, and additional percussion by John McEntire. Recorded in Chicago’s Experimen…
Crookt, Crackt Or Fly
Drag City is proud to announce the reissue of “Crookt, Crackt, or Fly,” the groundbreaking album by avant-garde duo Gastr del Sol. Originally released in 1994, this record stands as a landmark in experimental and post-rock music, now remastered and available once again for a new generation of listeners. Formed by David Grubbs and Jim O’Rourke, Gastr del Sol emerged from the fertile Chicago music scene of the early 1990s, pushing the boundaries of rock, folk, and modern composition. “Crookt, Crac…
Mirror Repair
2025 Repress. Three decades after its initial release, Gastr del Sol's Mirror Repair remains one of the most perfectly realized statements in the post-rock canon - a five-track EP that captured the crystalline moment when experimental precision met emotional immediacy. Now, Drag City presents a 2025 repress of this essential 1994 release, offering contemporary listeners the opportunity to experience the album that defined the creative partnership between David Grubbs and Jim O'Rourke at its most…
Circuits
A moment of first encounters, Circuits is the sound of four musicians (Savvas Metaxas, Evi Nakou, Giannis Arapis, Dimitris Tigkas)navigating an unfamiliar terrain in real-time, their individual languages dissolving into a shared improvisational space. Subtle drones, resonant feedback and textural gestures underpin the ensemble’s interplay. Circuits is the sum of raw, expressive utterances—melodic remnants shifting from pulse to friction, from bow, to frets, through fingertips. A single-take impr…
Bitterviper
Tip! In the realm of experimental music, certain collaborations feel inevitable - the convergence of like-minded artists whose individual voices seem destined to merge into something greater than the sum of their considerable parts. Bitterviper represents precisely such a meeting of minds, bringing together four musicians who have each participated in some of the most striking avant-garde music-making of the past two decades for an album that redefines what collaborative minimalism can achieve. …
If Your Mirror Breaks
In true ‘Ex fashion’, If Your Mirror Breaks picks up where 27 Passports left off, and erupts like a musical short story collection, a ten-part series of surrealist daydreams, calls to action, ominous warnings and bursts of vitality tapped into the pulse of time. What time could be more appropriate to release this album in, as the current one? Arnold de Boer, Katherina Bornefeld, Andy Moor and Terrie Hessels once again impress with their trademark urgency and creativity.   Starting from a stacca…
Backside
300 copies in Dark Crystal vinyl. The enigmatic sound architects of Nurse With Wound return with Backside, a haunting new studio album that bridges four decades of underground sonic archaeology. Released through Rotorelief in an exquisite limited edition pressing, this latest opus represents Steven Stapleton and Andrew Liles at their most revelatory, breathing new life into fragments of the long-lost Bladder Flask sessions from circa 1980. The paths of Nurse With Wound and Richard Rupenus's Blad…
Musica Futurista 2
2006 release ** A selection of futurist music by Francesco Balilla Pratella, Da Ardengo Soffici, Gabriella Bartolomei, Franco Casavola, Carmine Guarino, Ricky.
Hyderomastgroningem
2025 stock  Along with the Boredoms, Naked City and very few others, this amazing drums/bass duo are masters of quick-change, stop/start tempos, time-signatures and textures. Ruins' explosive and intricately composed tunes are sung in a peculiar language of their own invention. Yoshida cites Magma, This Heat, Debussy and Webern as influences. Masuda's favorites are James Brown and Fred Frith. Hardcore, art rock, psych, heavy metal, funk and lots more - if Ruins have heard it, they are likely to…
